so I'll cut right to the chase here
I have a pretty new Sig 229 with just a couple hundred rounds through it. While practicing dry firing and feeling out the trigger I notice that when staging the trigger (in double action) sometimes when I get really close to that release point the hammer falls but doesn't contact the firing pin.
What I think is happening is the hammer is falling and slipping off the sear, but the trigger isn't pulled as far as it needs to be for the gun to function properly. this is somewhat hard to duplicate, after slowly staging the trigger ten times I can get this problem to happen two or three times.
Is this just because I'm being stupid and SLOWLY and gradually staging trigger, more slowly than I would if I was actually shooting it? or is this a serious problem?
for what it's worth this gun has been 100% at the range. 0 issues. And I'm not staging the trigger like I would when I am shooting, I was just trying to feel the trigger out and squeezing very slowly, holding it in one spot for a few seconds and squeezing a bit more. thoughts?
